From now on, she will rule the world!

Chapter 419

“Oh well, whatever. Our 6th Army Corps is going to eradicate you with all its force――”

The monster consisting mostly of crooked lips advanced before I could answer Helme’s telepathic question. The movements of its eight arms was quick and it wielded its weapons abnormally quickly. But, in contrast to its arm movements, the movement of its green, misty lower half was slow.

The instant it swung down one of the magic swords, an ocher mana wave was created from the sword’s blade. The mana wave was fast as it headed straight for Kizeleg.

“Humph.”

Kizeleg transformed one of his arms into a silver sword with a sneer and raised the sword arm towards his upper right while jumping lightly. His sword arm drew a crescent moon in the air, splendidly hitting the mana wave in the air and bisecting it. The remnants of the wave dispersed to the left and right of Kizeleg, clashing against roots.

“――Kizeleg! Are you okay!?” The tiny Golgonshura cried out in worry.

Her tone now was different from back when she faced us. It was the voice of a cute woman. Well, Kizeleg is her husband and a hunk, so yeah.

“I used up my mana――” Kizeleg muttered while sweeping his sword arm sideways, “――but, if it’s for just a bit, I can fight. And that cluster of crooked mouths isn’t just an ordinary vanguard… Golgonshura…”

The silver attire cladding his body looked dull.

“Yeah…however I…my power…”

Gol nodded at Kizeleg and then looked my way. She didn’t go as far as asking me to save them since she had her pride as goddess, but I could tell from her eyes that she was begging for help.

Still, Kizeleg’s earlier movements were fast. His wings are still sealed off as clear from those 卍 symbols, and yet he was abnormally quick. Nothing less of a god, huh?

Now then, it’s not like I’m going to answer Gol’s indirect plea, but I guess I’ll form a common front with him here.

Eva and Rebecca took Ciel and distanced themselves.

“I shall protect Ciel as well.”

Jody was apparently going to act as rear guard for Eva, Rebecca, and Ciel. Not much time has passed since her rebirth, so I don’t think it’s necessary for her to fight, but she had apparently gotten back her scythe and scales from Rebecca.

Those two items had belonged to her originally. As such she possessed an amazing skill with her scythe. So much so that I could feel from her swings alone that she had reached the epitome of scythe arts.

The scales were connected to the rope belt with its cute moth marks coiled around her waist.

“Don’t try the impossible,” I warned Jody.

“Yes, Master…”

I sensed a strong will from her eyes, so I nodded at her. Then I shifted my eyes back to the mouth monster.

Does the misty lower half and its eight arms require special attention?

While paying attention to its two mist legs, I addressed everyone.

“…All of you, fight while making your own judgments.”

Suddenly new enemies with two eyeball heads appeared on the other side of Golgonshura’s old prison from a place with conspicuously withered vegetation. No arms were attached to their daruma-like torsos. But, instead of arms, they had short multi-legs. Big claws were growing out of those legs. Those new reinforcements were of a different type than the vanguard monster with the eight arms.

I guess it’s fine to label those darumas as Rolga’s vanguards, too.

The big claws on the feet were rotating like helicopter blades. Therefore, they kept cutting down the withered grasses around them as they advanced. The claws rotated so fast that I thought the darumas could fly off at any moment.

If you excluded the foot blades, they resembled the arbiters I encountered when traveling with Religious Organization Halfmalida underground.

In addition, droves of daruma monsters kept appearing while knocking down the apple and fruit trees that hadn’t withered. Their numbers went up to company size at the least.

These combat forces…are attacking us from the underground deeper down the ravine? It’d be easier with the ancient wolfmen here, but oh well, we just need to prune them by ourselves then.

“Shuuya-sama! Their numbers have exceeded a hundred, but they keep coming!” Kisara reported from up in the sky.

“Your Majesty! They resemble the monster army led by Archduchess Ellecia Cailn who’s ruling over 【Resonant Big Waterfall Cailn】 in the Spirit World!” Shuhelia exclaimed while readying her two magic swords.

So they had the rank of archduchess above Demonic Dukes in the Spirit World? I would have suspected that something like a Demonic Marshal would be the name of a rank higher than Demonic Duke. Maybe the 【Resonant Big Waterfall Cailn】 is a special area in some way?

“Nn, garuuu!” Rolodeen roared.

She grew her body by one size from her wild cat-like appearance into a version suited for group combat. She didn’t seem to intend to rely on her fire breath this time around.

“Nn,” purred Rollodeen in my direction.

I nodded at her, signaling that she was free to go nuts. Rollodeen purred faintly once more, before turning her head in the direction of the daruma monsters. Immediately following, she dashed off. As she ran, a swarm of tentacles was unleashed from the area around her neck.

The darumas’ bodies were mercilessly stabbed by a swarm of bone swords. In no time, multiple monsters were turned into chunks of meat.

Rollodeen continued her onslaught. At some point, she scrutinized one of the daruma bodies in front of her. Venomous-looking blood spewed out of its corpse, but without minding that, Rollodeen devoured its corpse while growling.

The monster seemed to taste unexpectedly good since she swallowed the whole thing in no time without even mothering to chew.

I decided to leave the daruma reinforcements to Rollodeen.

“I shall handle the vanguard monster!”

“The enemies of vanguards are vanguards! Leave it to us!”

The two Burning Knights vigorously declared while sitting on their tigers like two military commanders. The monster itself, however, showed no interest in their declaration.

The mouths forming its upper body spread as if tearing open, and some poisonous-looking, probably-stinky breath was released from there. And then it swung the magic wand in one of its arms upwards.

In the next instant, a venomous-looking defense barrier, which looked to consist mostly out of darkness, expanded above the monster.

Then it shouted the names of skill or spell names from its crooked mouth, accompanied by an eerie, unique echo.

“Ji Ludo Rana (Great).”

“Great.”

“Fagradaquilas (Phoenix Flower Shield)――”

“Phoenix Flower Shield.”

Following that, the mana shield, which used to be the defense barrier, deformed with creaks and distortions, changing into a flower resembling a bellflower. However, that bellflower withered away in an instant, and started to twist again, just to change its shape once more.

Eventually, it became a mana flower similar to a buttercup with many layers of pleats.

“It’s a flower so beautiful that you wouldn’t have been able to ever expect it from the monster’s appearance…,” Kisara spat out, rage oozing out of her voice. “But…”

Then her black mask transformed, only leaving two thin stripes on her eyelids behind. Basically, her mask had become a deep black eyeshadow. It suited her very much since she was a beauty to begin with.

Moreover, a small horn, which you couldn’t usually see, peeked out from her white, silky hair. In addition, that black horn was blinking? Was her mask possibly stored away inside the horn?

Suddenly, a pattern similar to the marks left behind after having your skin sucked by an octopus pad appeared on her cheek. I remember having seen that same pattern during our mock battles. It always appeared whenever she unleashed her palm heel skill at close range.

Kisara pressed her thumb against the handle of her witch spear, and while twisting her face as if feeling pain, “…Shuuya-sama, I feel dense darkness from that mouth monster. The defense formation formed by my dolls was broken after its mist legs entered their permeter.”

Her normal paper dolls were already gone. Only her <Unified Flying Witch Familiars> Jubei and Chikata were going around the demi-gods while repeatedly dancing and back somersaulting.

“I strongly feel my own mana from one of those tiny things dancing around me…don’t tell me…” Golgonshura pointed at Chikata while looking at him.

In response, Kizeleg glared at Kisara intensely, and then shifted his eyes to me as well. He didn’t act hostile towards us, but did he find out that we fought against Golgonshura?

Well, at the moment, we share the common enemy of “Rolga’s Vanguard.” I jerked my chin towards that vanguard. Kizeleg nodded, perceiving the intention behind my action.

The mouth monster seemed to possess a thick darkness, if going by the information obtained through Kisara’s senses. Its appearance is, well…eight arms of various sizes on its upper body half, which was made up out of mouths, and two, green, misty legs at its lower body half.

Going by its location, I suspect it to be a commanding officer in charge of gauging the power of an enemy. I feel like it’s equipped with all sorts of resistances.

Well, if it’s weak against light, the initial use of <Shining Chain Lance> might work in our favor. Or I could give Holy Spear Arost in the hand of <Magic Hand Guided by Thought> a turn. Or I could simply charge at it with the blood chain armor cladding my body.

However, Kisara seemed to be angry about something as she looked down on the flower shield from above. I guess I’ll try to take a look at the situation. However, I should warn her in advance so far as it goes.

“Kisara, I’d like to tell you to adapt to the situation as necessary, but it’d be best for you to not force it. The opponent uses poison, so be careful.”

Am I too nosy here? She’s someone experienced in fighting for many years on various battlefields.

However, after hearing my words and looking extremely happy, she proclaimed, “Okay! Then I shall use the <Blood Cry Spear> stance――”

Oh? The Bloody Cry Spear stance? So she has stances other than the Desert Crow stance?

She swung her witch spear sideways and glared at the monster below, “Monster! You shall taste the blood of Damo’Anun’s witch spear, the mightiest scared tool of the Evil Ogre Princess Armament…thou becomest two of the Hundred Ogre Path, Eighth Principle of the Hundred Ogre Blood, thou hast glared, hyureya――”

The grimoire floating next to her gleamed as well. With ominous noise, the skull spearhead of her witch spear squirmed like sticky goo. At once, bloody, octagonal skull blades were created in huge numbers alongside what sounded like burbling.

I couldn’t help but to stare at the change. The octagonal blades turned into a spearhead formed by blades that repeatedly overlapped as if to form a globe. It was a globe-shaped spearhead, but a swarm of tiny, octagonal skull blades protruded in ridiculous numbers in all directions.

Kisara stopped looking at her spear and gazed at the monster instead. And then she moved her arm backwards while twisting her waist, all the while holding the transformed witch spear in her right hand, as if drawing the string of a bow. She extended her left hand straight towards the monster. It was the motion of a <Throw>.

I got mesmerized when she started to use her magic breathing to chant one of her spells in her peculiar, honed singing voice. As soon as she ended her chant, she threw the witch spear.

The spear headed straight for the defensive flower shield deployed by the monster. Groaning as if thirsting for its prey could be heard from the skull spearhead as it ripped through the air, just to be instantly followed by a clash between spear and defense shield.

A sound similar to the tolling of bells announcing dawn resounded from the location where they came into contact, but as soon as I thought that, the sound changed into an explosion-like, terrifying, discordant noise.

A mana wind spread across the sky alongside the detonation in an instant.

The mouth monster remained completely unfazed by this. A dazzling flash of light occurred at the place where the spear and barrier met. The bloody overlapping blades of the spearhead pierced through countless defensive layers of the flower as if eating through the pleats of the buttercup.

However, the spear stopped halfway through the defensive shield.

“Eh!? For it to defend against <Mount Potalaka>――”

Kisara was surprised, and so was I. For it to have blocked a special skill, which I guess to be a higher ranking <Throwing> skill type was clear proof of it not being just any ordinary vanguard.

I readjusted my assessment of the monster to being a formidable foe.

Suddenly the monster shook its eight arms while moving its warped mouths in a disgusting way.

“Guhuohuohaa”

“Guhuehuehuee.”

“Gehuuuhaaa.”

Altered voices laughed at the same time.

In addition, a big, crooked mouth declared, “What cheeky attack to pierce through several layers of the great Phoenix Flower Shield! You cursed butterfly kin――”

And then it released an ocher mana wave at Kisara which it mistook as butterfly kin. Kisara dodged the wave with magnificent movements.

Although she was shaken by having her <Throwing> skill blocked, it was unthinkable for Kisara to be hit by something like that, seeing how she easily dodged Rollodeen’s tentacle barrage.

At that point, I noticed how Rollodeen was struggling with all the new enemy reinforcements.

『Helme, I won’t use any of your skills this time, so go and help Rollo with the reinforcements』

『O-Okay』, Helme answered with a somewhat strained telepathic voice.

At once she left my left eye, and flew away while changing into a female body. I guess she didn’t want to get in contact with my blood chain armor since she knew its might from having witnessed its devastating force underground.

She created ice cocoons at her hands and swung her arms while heading for Rollodeen. Ice spears with the size of a human arm were released from the cocoons.

『Vessel, thou won’t allow me to leave?』

『I’m inside my blood chain armor right now, but want to give it a try anyway?』

『…H-Hu-Humph, vessel, how dare thou to instill fear in me…』

『It’s just going to mean that you’ll be sealed away for a little while』

『…Thou are a hundred years too early to seal someone as great as me!』

Just as I finished that conversation with Saraten in no time, the Burning Knights charged the mouth monster while riding Alray and Hueremy. They closed the distance quickly, and swung their bone swords sideways. They aimed at slashing the monster in passing.

However, the monsters lifted three of its arms that were growing on its sides. The broad sword held by those three arms blocked the bone swords, causing a stiff screeching to resound and sparks to scatter.

The monster pushed its greatswords forward as if punching, repelling the Burning Knight’s swords upwards. The two knights lost their balance, but Alray and Hueremy unleashed hindleg kicks against the monster’s back.

In the meantime, Kisara swooped down from above.

But, the monster moved two arms as if having eyes on its back. One of the arms was grasping a magic sword with a conspicuously crooked blade. The other arm was holding an abnormal magic club that was an assembly of teeth. The monster used these two weapons as a shield, completely defending against the tigers’ kicks.

The Burning Knights, who failed at their mounted charge, distanced themselves from the monster. They had judged that it had no blind spots from the high quality of its arm movements.

Meanwhile, Kisara succeeded in recovering her witch spear that was stuck in the buttercup flower barrier. She then dashed across the sky while swinging her spear. After rotating, she created the black rosaries on both her wrists. Her outfit also changed into the sleeveless nun’s garb.

While flying, she drew Yazekapos’s Dagger with one hand, but seemed to be unsure whether she should <Throw> it.

Apparently pissed by Kisara’s magnificent, quick movements, the monster moved its crooked mouths, releasing some gaseous mana breath while croaking, “…Butterfly kin…kukukuku”

It seemed to misidentify Kisara and the Burning Knights as butterfly kin. It pointed its two, misty feet towards Kizeleg and mini-Golgonshura. Given that it had no head, it was hard to distinguish its front and back, but maybe you could label the slender side of its feet as front so far as it went?

“…It will all be over once we crush the small demi-goddess. We shall dedicate this domain to Rolga-sama!” The monster exclaimed while exuding mana into its vicinity like a pressure vent. “Vanish alongside your kin――”

It thrust its misty feet out, just for a green, nail-like fog to head for Golgonshura.

“Golgonshura! <Butterfly Silver Rose Hands – Corrupt Flower Net>!”

Kizeleg went in front so as to cover for Gol, lifting his arms and shouting the name of an incomprehensible skill. A silver gleam wrapped up his arms. His arms split apart into a flock of thin hairs and moved radially around him, creating an umbel. His arms had basically transformed into a silver flower while a swarm of silver butterflies fluttered around him.

The green fog clashed against the flower, just for fog and butterfly swarm to mingle, before the fog disappeared as if being purified.

It was an amazing defense technique.

“――Thanks, Kizeleg,” Gol swooned as if having fallen in love all over again.

“For you to erase my fog…the power of those silver arms…the powers of a butterfly…no…a demi-god!?”

“Powerful underground dweller, my name is Kizeleg. I am one of the gods who devoured the likes of yours to his heart’s content during the great war of wild gods, you know?” Kizeleg declared with a stately tone, but several cracks ran across his body.

In addition to turning one arm into a sword before, he also transformed his arms into something akin to a silver flower. Besides, he’d lived on for a long time as a silver box. He was probably forcing himself, since he lost most of his power.

“I don’t know that name. I will get this domain for Rolga-sama. Get lost――”

The monster started to advance while swinging its eight arms.

At that moment, the Burning Knights appeared behind it, apparently having jumped off Alray and Hueremy. They swung down the bone sword. Simultaneously, Shuhelia charged at it from the side.

On the other hand, Alray and Hueremy went to assist Rollodeen.

“Kizeleg, you owe me one,” I told him and then tried to join the vanguards’ battle, too.

I turned my eyes to the battle between the monster and my kin while slowly walking over. Zemetas and Adomos’s bone swords were parried by three magic swords.

Meanwhile, Shuhelia swung her magic swords with such a speed that they seemed to blur after activating her Demonic Eyes. But, her swords were repelled by a magic sword and mace.

Zemetas and Adomos unleashed a series of low kicks at the monster’s legs while rotating sideways. However, they were warded off with the magic club.

The monster was truly strong and its techniques as a warrior were fairly refined. That and its misty legs turned it into a very dangerous foe.

Shuhelia and the Burning Knights launched another array of attacks, but the monster skillfully fended them off. Its movements to the front and back were sluggish, but its eight arms were quick in responding to attacks and dishing out attacks themselves.

Shuhelia’s face had stiffened. Apparently her pride as former Spirit World Knight had been stimulated. At the same time of announcing, “<Twin Sword – Snake Heron Arrest>,” she shifted her elbows sideways, up and down while unleashing a sword play that would mess with anyone’s timing. She freely included feints and created countless sword flashes that looked just like snakes.

Being on the receiving end, the monsters switched to defense while using all its eight arms without reservations. And that was the moment when Shuhelia changed her arms movements. While forming a cross with her swords, she delivered a special slash which triggered a whirlpool of mana. It was the same technique she had used against me as well.

The vortex burst open and winding shock waves shot out in all directions. At the same time, countless mana blades were scattered, too. The squall of sharp knives blew at the monster like a shotgun charge. And as might be expected, the monster couldn’t block all of those and consequently suffered many injuries. The mana blades tore open its crooked mouths and stabbed its misty legs, causing big chunks of meat to be ripped out. Its body and shape got greatly messed up.

Not bad at all, Shuhelia.

“Guuh, gyaaaa――”

The monster screamed. Apparently its upper and lower body halves could feel pain. The multitude of mouths all over opened widely so as to shout out their fear and pain after being hit by mana blades.

Kisara decided that the monster had been weakened enough at that point. The crows unleashed by her homed in at the monster. However, some of the flower barrier was still left above the monster’s head. Naturally, the crows crashed into the mana flower. And as could be predicted, the crows didn’t manage to get through.

It looks like ranged attacks don’t work overly well here. Even an assault by Arost should be blocked, I suspect.

But, in the next moment, the Burning Knights charged at the monster while releasing smoke from their whole bodies. After shouting skill names, both knights unleashed a barrage of chain attacks, based on their swords and shields.

Shuhelia also joined their charge so as to fulfill her role as assault vanguard. Activating a skill, she used Zemetas’s shield as a stepping stone and attacked the monster, which was now in full defense with its body bent forward. She thrust her magic swords at the monster’s lower body.

However, the monster reacted to that. Matching its movements with Shuhelia’s while injured, it brandished the greatswords in its three arms horizontally. Shuhelia was blown away alongside her two magic swords.

Using the force, Shuhelia repeatedly retreated by back-flipping. Once she stopped, she tried to rush in again, but staggered.

Did she run out of stamina? She had gone down on one knee while panting heavily. Or rather, her face looks ghastly pale. Argh, she’s spitting green blood. Did she get poisoned?

But, Shuhelia is a Lucival bloodkin. Her recovery might be small, but she’s visibly improving.

Still, seeing her suffer from the poison, even if only for a short moment…the Burning Knights are definitely strong, seeing how they don’t feel anything. Well, they’re skeletons covered in heavy armor. Moreover, they’re blowing out their own smoke, so it’s only natural, I suppose.

“That was great teamwork…but, is the blond lady alright?” Jody muttered after having watched the exchange just now.

“Shuuyaaaaaaa, goooo!” Rebecca’s yell hit my ears.

The monster hadn’t stopped advancing in the meantime either. Its legs had recovered their previous shape.

“You guys, stay away from me now! Fall back and join Rollodeen’s battle――”

Immediately after shouting that order, I activated <Bloody Accel>. Then I had the <Magic Hand guided by Thought> with Arost swooping down. The holy spear ran into the flower barrier. It also penetrated several layers, but…in the end it got stopped just like the witch spear.

It looks like I have no choice but to take this into close combat. The monster has poisonous legs and the breath coming out of its mouths seems to sting, but…no choice.

I headed to the monster as if switching with Shuhelia and the Burning Knights. Closing the distance to the monster in an instant, but the instant I entered spear range, my nose was assaulted by a terrible stench. It felt so nasty that I felt like screaming. Even my blood chain armor didn’t protect me from scents.

I unintentionally yelled, “You stink――,” while stepping in with my left foot. At the same time, I used my right arm to thrust Baldok at the monster. The spearhead headed straight for the monster while the spearhead spiraled around.

However, the monster used its three greatswords to deal with my <Thrust>. As swords and Baldok clashed, sparks were scattered all over, and the <Thrust> was diverted downwards.

Immediately following, a magic sword and mace attacked me from the upper left and lower right. Without minding that, I manipulated my armor and invoked <Blood Chain Banquet>. Chains extended from the tips of the shoulder protectors. The two blood chains looked like spiraling blood snakes. The approaching weapons had parts of them melted away in the instant they got in contact with the blood snakes.

The melted metal was completely devoured by the snakes, which then changed into blood butterflies and fluttered away.

“W-What――”

With its wariness at maximum, the monster retreated while using its remaining weapons for defense. “…A blood armor that melts my weapons!? A Spirit World Knight, huh…?”

After pulling back Baldok, I poured mana into the halberd. My mana and spirit were connected with Baldok and I felt as if the flesh of my palm was devoured while holding the handle.

Well, you use a monster to deal with a monster…

Then my eyes fell on the Ruby Loop, reminding me of Adombrally’s power. The flames of Greater Evil Dragon Zaim, was it? No, this is no technique to try on a mouth monster. Let’s use it next time, if I don’t forget.

This time…I’m going to use Baldok which has fused with my mana.

The magic halberd was pulsating, and a storm of mana was raging. With my body being clad in blood chain armor, I should look like a bizarre spearmaster to outsiders.

Alongside the tolling of a bell inside my head, I heard a telepathic message from somewhere――though it was hard to understand as the voice was hoarse―― telling me, 『Devour, devour, star of the abyss…rules…over spirals….』, soon to be followed by me experiencing a feeling as if a mana wind was blowing out of my body through the armor and Baldok.

Thereupon, the chest part of my armor transformed into a shining light cross. Right afterwards, sinister, abnormal mana was spewed out of Baldok as if to revolt against the blood chain armor. Moreover, another response occurred on the spearhead of Baldok, too. As if to sneer at the abnormal mana released by Baldok, skulls surfaced on the blade’s surface of the storm-cloud-like ax blade and started to cackle while throbbing. It was a laughter as if they were desiring the conflict of contradicting mana types.

“What is it this time? Just when I thought it might be magic armor with the blessing of Lugnad, I feel a powerful authority of Light God Lulodis…does that mean you’re a knight of godly evil? Just who are you…?”

Godly evil, eh? It might be close since I’m a Light Demon Lucival.

“My appearance might look suspicious, but I’m a spearmaster.”

“…Don’t screw around…just where would you find a spearmaster who melts the weapons of their opponents!?”

“Aren’t you facing one just now?”

I opened both my hands, causing the monster to draw back with a start.

“…In the first place, what’s with that weird magic spear…? Its abnormal mana and the laughing skulls on its ax blade…”

The monster was apparently analyzing me after having distanced itself.

“Hey…there’s nothing but skin between your mouths, so where’s your eyes anyway?”

“Over here!”

The monster showed a blood-stained eye embedded at the butt end of the crooked magic wand in one of its hands. A small evil-repelling symbol was visible on its eyeball’s surface. I feel like I’ve seen that somewhere before.

While recalling a certain cow face, I lowered my waist, pulled back my right arm, and scowled at that eye while starting the motion of a <Thrust>. I loosely bent my left arm and pointed my left hand at the monster.

Anyway, I don’t plan to suffer from the monster’s foul breath any longer.

I focused on <Blood Chain Banquet>.

“Okay, I see. Let us finish this now then――”

I had the blood chain gauntlet covering my left hand disappear. Several blood chains extended from my left hand towards the monster. The monster reacted by trying to move its arms, but it was too slow since it had been preoccupied with Baldok.

The chains pierced into one leg and the place where I assumed its left flank to be.

“Guuaaa――”

I affixed the monster with my blood chains so that it wouldn’t be able to run away anymore, then I activated <Crimson Storm Drill>.

Pulling myself towards the monster by reeling in the blood chains of my left hand, I accelerated my body’s speed and then erased the chains. The distance between the monster and me closed in an instant. Baldok headed straight for the monster with its spearhead spiraling while buzzing.

The storm cloud spearhead impacted against the greatswords which the monster held up as a shield, pulverized their blades, and penetrated through the monster.

As the monster screamed in agony, the head of the evil dragon king with its maw wide open manifested. On top of that, the head of the evil tiger god with its ferocious features and stake-like fangs appeared from within the evil dragon king’s maw. The evil god head devoured the dragon king’s jaw, just for an evil entity I’ve never seen before to appear from behind the evil god’s head. As the beast devoured the evil god, countless illusions of evil demons caused a terrifying mana storm while blending into one huge mass. That mana storm gobbled down all of the monster as if swallowing it whole.

In an instant, all of the monster was gone, pulverized and turned into dust while fluttering through the air. And even that dust was sucked into the fierce mana vortex caused by Baldok.

At that moment, a crimson flash suddenly shot out of Baldok. The monster had vanished without leaving a trace behind.

After swinging Baldok sideways so as to get rid of the reverberations, I erased it from my right hand. In response, Shuhelia and the Burning Knights broke out in cheers while the demi-god couple remained completely silent.

I could also hear Jody, and with some delay, Rebecca from a distance.

I released my <Bloody Accel> alongside the blood chain armor, resulting in me becoming stark naked. I also erased <Magic Hand guided by Thought>, and grabbed Arost with my right hand as it fell down.

“Shuuya-sama, the cross on your chest is shining, but so is your lower body…” Kisara pointed out while staring at my dick.

I had Hal’Konk appear and deploy the dark green protective clothing.

Soon after, I received blood messages.

『You defeated the stinky one! I could see it from over here! Baldok caused a terrifying tornado!』

『Nn, looks like Ciel also knew that you were fighting, Shuuya. She shouted at the top of her lungs. But, flashing your dick is a big no-no!』

After answering Rebecca and Eva, I headed over to the battle site where Rollodeen and the others were wreaking havoc.
